Maps for editorial features, ready by deadline.
From manuscript to print-ready map in minutes. PDF for press, PNG for web. Commercial license included. No GIS, no external cartographer, no subscription.
Pay-per-download · Print + web from one workspace · License for print and digital included
The story is edited, the layout is locked, and the map is still missing. An external cartographer needs three days you don't have; the editorial deadline is tomorrow, and any late change to the route means another round with the same three-day wait.
mapstudio delivers an editorial map in minutes, not days, in a style built for print and web, with a commercial license already covering the issue and its digital edition. A last-minute change to the route or a place name is a re-export, not a new commission.
Typical task: East Australia feature for the special issue
Enter the brief
"East Australia: Cairns to Sydney, highlights along the coast", and the AI takes it from there, placing the route and every named stop from the brief alone.
Pick a magazine style
Atlas, Relief, or Flat as a base. Adjust the palette and label typography to the magazine's visual identity, right in the browser, before the layout is finalized.
Export print-ready
PDF for the press file, high-resolution PNG for the web edition, both generated from the same map so the print and online versions of the feature never disagree.
30 minutes from brief to print-ready map. Iterations at no extra cost.
Built for the newsroom
Print-ready
PDF built for the printer's press file, high-resolution images (PNG, JPEG, WebP) up to 5,000×5,000 px for the web edition and social promotion. Both included in the same download.
Magazine-grade
Atlas style with editorial polish, plus the ability to plot sea and ferry routes along real shipping lanes for cruise or island-hopping features, not just straight lines between ports. No generic Google Maps screenshots.
License included
Commercial license for print and digital comes with every download, covering the print run, the digital edition, and social promotion, so legal doesn't need a separate sign-off for the online version.
Iterations free
Maps stay in your workspace after the issue ships. Re-edit, re-export, swap languages, or reuse the same map in a later issue or the digital archive, without paying for a new download.
